Atteeeennnn-TION! Captain Present!

Needless to say here's my now third take on my Character Design final. Of course now I've made it that much harder for myself but this is what I'm most rediculously pleased with. And here we have Ahimsa again, only in his thirtysomething hardened adult version from 10-9. I kept every single girly thing about him but figured out a way to still make him read as very much a male. This was actually a really different approach for me with him, considering his lines are usually all curved and not a single hard angle to be seen from toe to head but I decided to go the opposite and everywhere there was a curve to put in an angle. Inspired by the contrast panels on his uniform, I decided to constuct him completely in triangles with the exception of his rectangular face.

In the end I feel like his hands still aren't quite large enough, but they're okay with his huge feet. And even not in color he still reads like being a big guy due to the proportion distortion. What makes me even more happy is he seriously looks like he could ruin someone's day. Kinda a far cry from the pretty femmy young thing he used to be. :3
